Give Me The Simple Life

[00:08.61] I don't believe in fretting or grieving
[00:12.72] Why mess around with strife?
[00:16.02] I never was cut out
[00:18.10] To step and strut out
[00:20.29] Give me the simple life
[00:23.46] Some find it pleasant, dining on pheasant
[00:28.16] Those things roll off my knife
[00:31.24] Just serve me tomatoes and mashed potatoes
[00:35.62] Give me the simple life
[00:38.98] A cottage small is all I'm after
[00:43.11] Not one that's spacious and wide
[00:46.72] A house that rings with joy and laughter
[00:50.74] And the ones you love inside
[00:53.74] Some like the high road, I like the low road
[00:58.31] Free from the care and strife
[01:01.55] Sounds corny and seedy
[01:04.08] But yes, indeedy
[01:06.33] Give me the simple life
[01:09.58]
[01:40.36] I greet the dawn when I awaken
[01:44.65] The sky is clear up above
[01:48.89] I like my scrambled eggs and bacon
[01:52.62] Served by someone that I love
[01:55.96] Life could be thrilling with one who's willing
[01:59.97] To be a farmer's wife
[02:03.65] Kids calling their pappy
[02:05.76] Would make me happy
[02:07.60] Give me, give me the simple life
[02:14.84]
